Didn't want to run into over 200. Anyone with an idea, please go for it.

Remember when I told y'all that my sense of humor seems to be very compatible with Middle Eastern people? When I was shopping for that love seat, some guy, of Middle Eastern decent came up. We exchanged a short conversation and I had him laughing. He told me that I should come around more often because they needed to laugh. He then hugged me, after asking my permission. Hey, I don't get too many hugs these days and wouldn't turn one down.

I asked him where he was from. He told me the Middle East but has been here for a long time.

Now it wasn't anything to do with how I looked. I was pretty rough looking since I barely put a brush thru my hair today. I'm not going to spiff up to go work at the camp.

Turned out he owned the place. Figures.

We did chat for a little while and when he found out I was buying some stuff he ordered I get a 15% discount. Never underestimate the benefit of a good sense of humor. Maybe it was because I looked so pitiful.

I did tell the guy that I've always found that my sense of humor was very compatible with people from the Middle East. I worked with many in health care.

Coreen, did you get a notification from TM this time?

Carol said...

Papa carpenter called while I was at Walmart. He drove by my house and camp but I wasn't there. He just had a tooth pulled. I'm sorry I missed him. I couldn't have made him coffee though. Can't drink any hot or cold stuff right after a tooth extraction. At the same time he called, I was texting his son about the trail. I think they qualify as my family now.

Coreen, I sincerely believe that Lanza may have had new onset schizophrenia. He was at the right age for it. I think he was suffering from severe delusions. It was suggested that mama might have been a prepper. She may have been discussing that with her son. There were people preparing for the end and the end was supposed to be preceded by awful disaster and chaos.

I can't say that Lanza may not have had some deluded thought that he may have been saving those children from some more horrendous outcome, if the chaos that was predicted by some came to be.

I am committed to the concept..thou shall not kill. But am OK with the concept of thou shall put someone safely away forever. He definitely needed that.

I have worked with people who were seriously psychotic. You just can't understand what goes on in their brains.

Glad you got a discount on your furniture. I like places to sit in all rooms. Never know when need to sit down.

Carol, I have been dying to see your camp. May just surprise you one of these days.

Carol said...

Hopefully it will be ready for company in not too long.

Late Spring would be a good time. Definitely not summer. Summers are hell here.

Hi Coreen, I have been having these nighttime itching episodes for several years. I have found the treatment though and that is what is important. It does not matter what I eat for dinner or before bedtime, they just occur spontaneously. They happened in Arkansas too where it is more humid. The itching starts on the sides of my face and down my neck and spreads to the rest of my body. I cannot stay in bed. I jump out of bed like I have been shot because it is so intense.

jan said...

I remember summers there. I won't surprise you. I don't like to do that to people.

jan said...

Wish I had something neat to put up for a post.

Carol said...

Just got a note from TM that the comment section is under repair. It will take about 24 hours.
